Hi gents,
Recently we've been fettling around the Solarwinds Orion report manager, in a vain attempt at getting some useful information out of it about our WAN. We had some training on generating reports, and it seems that the SW products are still transitioning to the web interface (I still prefer the old fat-client). During the training, we touched on some fat-client reporting stuff, but that's already left my brain on some vacation with most of my other short term memories.
Specifically, I want b/w utilisation (in Mbps) measured at set intervals over a specific period of time (say 30 days).
I'm usually pretty good with finding out most of this stuff, but this one has me stumped. I cannot find a report type to use in SW that will give me this information (at least not from the web report builder). There are so many built in reports to chose from, the mind boggles. So I tried them all. None of them gave me this information. I was under the almost disillusioned certainty that this would be the first one on there, as it's something you'd nearly always want to see at some point, right? Specially when we need to see the impact "cloudy" stuff has on the WAN links and internet connections.
Anyway, if someone knows how to build a report that pulls off this info for specific interfaces on specific devices, please let me know!
Thanks,
Greg
